AMJA Initial Announcement About Eid

In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Grantor of Mercy

All praise is due to Allah, and may peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah, his family, his Companions, and those who support him.

The Secretariat of the Assembly of Muslim Jurists of America congratulates all the Muslim communities in North America on the coming month of Shawwal.

It will be AMJA’s pleasure to announce its decision, according to various authoritative sources, regarding the matter of sighting the crescent after sunset, this Tuesday, inshaAllah.

We wish you goodness every year. May Allah accept from us all our good deeds.

Sincerely,
Salah Assawy, PhD
Secretary General
